I woke up in the least expected place in my mind. It would have made sense if I was still dreaming but I could feel the stinging pain when I tried pinching myself. What in the world was I doing in middle of nowhere?
I was surrounded by vast trees and bushy grasses with no protection from the direct rays of the sun. Even worse was the fact that this is nowhere close to my bedroom and is completely new to me. I didn't know if I was even safe in this weird place with god knows how many flesh eating animals were present. I wanted to go home and very badly wished that this is a dream.
I stood up and went to the nearest water body to see if it is drinkable. This felt like one of my online games where we are heroes trying to survive in the wilderness.I could see that the water contained green moss and was rather muddy but luckily I could get water from a stream near by.
As I washed my face and drank the clean water suddenly a large box nearly fell on me. I stumbled back and could feel my heart pounding as I looked at the box. I never thought I would feel so much fear for a random box ! This damn box nearly had me dead. I cautiously went near the box to see if it had something of value.
The box sure was big and tough since it could withstand such a fall. It was made of wood and seemed to have this weird aura which suggested it was enchanted . I read the note that was attached to it. " Congratulations for finding your first survival item..?"
The box contained leather boots and an armor which had a scary sword along with it. It had necessary items like a bag ,books and an item that looked like a pen but the more ancient version of one. The book's title was Spells for begginers and it contained a lot the spells I liked to use as an early gamer at The bloody leauge of heroes. This place keeps getting weirder and weirder.
I tried wearing the armor for safety reasons and also due to this world resembling a game which meant I would meet a giant monster sooner or later. I didn't leave a single thing and opened the book to find something useful. A map slipped out of the book and the good thing was that I had taken my geography class seriously. I headed of to the north since the map shows that if I travel in this route I will eventually get to a village.
I couldn't believe my luck when I had to travel so many lengths yet the village didn't seem to get any closer.
My trail was full of lush greenery and big trees that made the temperature cool with it's big shadows. I didn't see any other people like me along the way which lowered my hope. The place was a literal jungle but strangely I didn't see any flesh eating monsters. " Where am I..?" I couldn't help but think about it.
Suddenly I wake up at a strange place and the place is surely far from my home and even the map was different compared to our map. I don't want to accept it but maybe I really am in another world with no chance of survival. The world also has striking resemblance to my main game which makes it more weird. When I thought of the theory and walked on, I was super shocked when I bumped into someone.
I looked up and saw the face of the man who teaches the begginers. Great knight of the empire Sir Dorris stood before me. I guess I really do have a small chance of survival ...or so I thought. When I was about to speak he shouted to his troops,"Catch this demon of the dark side!"
I really don't have any chance of survival now.
As I ran into the forest in all directions I couldn't help myself but think if I really was in the game world. I was demon main and in this world I am a demon and even the great knight of the game is present here. I felt myself getting exhausted as I ran but I kept on running. The soldiers were persistent as they followed all my turns and chased me like they were the hell hounds. I could feel my chance of survival getting lowered and so as a last attempt to escape and confirm if my guess was true, I did a bizarre thing.
As I swiftly turned to face the men, I used one of the spells I loved as a begginer. In a swift movement I took out the book and chanted the spell of invinsibility . If I was to fail, I will be dead meat.
" Skill of invinsibility!" I chanted as I hid in a cave. I could see the soldiers coming closer and closer to me but they weren't even looking at me. I even stopped breathing to not cause any noise when they got too close. Soon they went on their own way and left me and after that I gasped for air.
Today was the day I found out that I am in a game.
